News, rumors and buzz around the draft and free agency

[NUMBERICA]

The Tobias Harris front is awfully quiet for a guy that’s supposed to get a max contract...

 

[NUMBERICA]

If Jazz keep Favors (as I hope they do), what $$$ do they have to offer free agents? Is it mid-level, bi-annual? What?

Room MLE ($4.7 million IIRC), and minimum contracts.

Straight up: that **** would be dumb. This team is still lacking a competent/durable 3rd guard, at least one PF, and at least one wing. The team could still use more scoring/shooting threats generally speaking as well.

Either has a deal or needs to wait for the dominos to fall. Probably the latter.

Same issues would remain if we replaced Favors with Portis on 15-ish million a year contract though (which is what it would likely take to get him)

What do we think Jamychal Green's price point is? If we let Favors go adding multiple pieces might be the way to go honestly.

Nah, let’s keep Favors and run thin on the bench because Favors is too important.

Someone can explain me why we just have a room exception of 4.7M and not a MLE of 9.2M? thanks

I really like Bogdanovic and think he would be an incredible fit in Quins offense. What exactly does Tony mean when he says he's thought to be a Pacers lean?

Bojan leaning towards staying with the Pacers is my guess.

I hope D-lo is not dumb enough to go back to the Fakers. They completely disrespected him the first two years then traded him.

He's probably waiting for news from Philly, as they can pay him the most, but yeah, we should be hearing about other teams setting up meetings.

The Pacers will give Bogdanovic more than we can

I see only two ways to get Bojan.

Opt out of Favors (and even then I think we’re a little short $) or trade Exum and Ingles. Ingles 13M alone isn’t enough.

But maybe I’m wrong, the market with dry up with these max guys filling up space, and Bojan could be had far cheaper than the ~20M anticipated.

I really like this guy on a reasonable contract

 

[zyzz]

This mean we still have to waive Neto?

[Keefe]

And if we opt out of Favors to get Bojan, who the hell do we have playing the 4?

Don’t think I’d really care though with this core.

Bring bacon Sef on the VM. Vince Carter maybe on the same.
